“…The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) pan-cancer gene expression data show high expression of GLS in acute myeloid leukemia, adrenocortical cancer, triple-negative breast cancer, colorectal cancer, kidney clear or papillary cell carcinoma, lung adenocarcinoma, melanoma, mesothelioma, pancreatic cancer, sarcoma and thyroid cancer [78,79]. Of these, GLS activity has been shown to be important for growth of acute myeloid leukemia [80][81][82], breast cancer [61,64,83,84], colorectal cancer [85], kidney cancer [86,87], lung cancer [88], melanoma [89,90] and pancreatic cancer cells [91] in studies that utilized smallmolecule inhibitors or gene-silencing approaches in cell lines. Further, glioblastoma cell lines have been found to be sensitive to glutaminase inhibitors in vitro, despite having relatively low GLS expression according to TCGA data [80,92].…”
